MANAGE YOUR COST

Stay in Your Network

Precision Blue members have access to Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Health System (FMOLHS) and other participating providers. While the Precision Blue product is offered only in the Greater Baton Rouge and Greater Monroe/West Monroe areas, Precision Blue members may also access Precision Blue network providers located in other parishes. When you choose care within the plan’s network, your costs are lower than if you select out-of-network care. Precision Blue offers two tiers of in-network benefits:

  • Enhanced Tier 1 – Enhanced Tier 1 includes FMOLHS primary care providers (PCPs) and Specialists.
  • Tier 1 – Tier 1 includes FMOLHS facilities, as well as in-network participating PCPs and Specialists that are not in Enhanced Tier 1.

Be proactive about staying in your network by visiting lablue.com/precision-blue to find a doctor or hospital in your network.
